The roof overlooks . the windows of the club before whioh are the desks of Tom Foley and Con- gressman Riordan. One of the mon had a rifle, and this rifle is said to be in the possession of the District Attorney. The district was full of political meetings, brass bands and fireworks that night, and the din was deafening. The District Attorney’s information 1 that Foley and Riordan were to be shot from the roof acrons the street, the oon- apirators believing that the noise of the band the fireworks would cover the sound of the shot, Children on an adjoining roof frightened off the assassins, accord- ing’ to Mr, Perkins's information. Later, he has heard, one of the two men went to Congressman Riordan's home, while the Congressman was Ill, with the intention of killing him, and ad actually entered his room when “ho was frightened away by a doctor and members of the Riordan family, From @ person conversant with the contents of Vennimore’s confession ‘The Evening World learned to-day | that It brings out @ condition similar _ 1» that im the Roseninal case. The confession of Fennimore, corroborated by other confessions and documentary evidence, establisses that men were ifhed to kill Minott and Galmart. Joe and Tony La Salle, who killed Minott, have confessed and are serving life terms in Sing Sing. 92,000 FOR THE KILLING OF GAIMARI. Fennimore, according to The Ev ging World's informant—who is @ relative of one of the men implicated im the plot—has sworn that the price ef killing Gaimari, who was one of the most popular Italians in the Bec- ond District and extremely valuable as a political asset to Foley, was fixed ‘at $2,000, Montimagno, Fennimore’s confession states, was to receive $200 for the job. All he was paid was $25, probably an advance. He was caught running away after shooting Gaimari. ‘The District Attorney ts after the man who is believed to have conceives the idea of killing off Foley's men and even Foley himself, As in the case, the most important evi- dence against this map must come accomplices, but there ts one important difference, » In the Becker case the accomplices, Rose, Vallon, Webber and Schepps, were all' granted immunity, In this case the tools of the alleged “man higher up” are all in prison serving sentences following conviction or have pleaded guilty. District Attorney Per- kins 1s particularly pleased that in this affair of assassination for hire he has not found it necessary to bargain with any o fthe criminals involved, THREATENED TECTIVES. Meeh of he corroboration of Fen- nimore's confession was obtained in advance, In this connection the Dis- trict Attorney took pains to-day to state that the Police Deparment has ven him valuable assistance all ‘hrough his investigation of the Sec- ond Assembly District murder plots and that some of the detectives have worked for weeks with the shadow of che assassin always ni at band. One of the advance corroborators was Louis De Mar, alias Mareno, who was arrested last night with Thomas Porcaio, an olive ol importe:, aud bis employer; Joseph Brondini of One Hundred and Seventy-ninth Btreet and Arthur Avenue and Rocco do, @ laborer, living in James treet, De Mar’s corroboration has been in the possession of the District agoreey for a month, was arrested several weeks ago fn connection with a counterfeiting ase, Detectives recognized him as having been a witness for the defense in ee trials of Montimagno and Car- a Under police persuasion A 4 i 2 i H ? a confession implicating Porearo, boss, Brondini and Leggardo.

HOW ROFRANO BROKE WITH TOM FOLEY OVER PLACE IN CONGRESS Michael Rofrano, who had held many minor offlces through the pat ronage of Big Tom Foley, asked Foley in 1912 to nominate him for Congress- man in place of Daniel J. Riordan. Foley refused. Rofrano, with the Driscotis, Hugens and Clement, former Foley adherents, and later laborers in the Hearst cause, set-up the Home Rule Club at No, 4 Madison Street in open opposition to Foley's Down Town Democratic Chub. ‘Michael Gaimari was stabbed in the back in Oliver Street Dec. 11, 1913, by Vincenzo Cardea. Within three ira Cardella was shot to death. John and Albert Gaimairi, brothers of Michael, were tried for the murder. The yrinoipal witness inst them, one Baldo, recanted at ¢ trial and is still awaiting trial for perjury. Rocco Carnivale was chary with procuring perjury from Baldo against the Galmairis, The presere> of Rofrano at Police Headquariuis when Baldo incriminated the two ad- cused men was commented upon. Jim Minott was shot to death by Joseph and Antonio La Salle last New Cear’s day. He had been @ district Jeader under Foley and had assaulted Robert Rofrano at Coney Island the following May after a clash between the Home Rule and downtown fac- tions. Later Rocco Carnivalle was charged with slashing Minott's face at Broadway and Forty-seoond Street, but Minott refused to identity Carnt lo as Kis assailant. Minnett was charged by the Ro- frane-Driscoll faction with tntimida- ting voters, open ballota before they were placed in ballot boxes and chasing votera not known to be Foley ie. He waa employed by the 5 Agricultural Department at Foley's instence. In their defense the La Salles said Mi nett had insulted their sister and when they went out to find him he opened fire on them, forcing them to kill him in self-defense. Minnett, though opposed Rofrane in the feud, was Rofrane's firet cousin. Mike Gaimairi, who had succeeded Refrano as Foley's chief aide among Italian-born voters, was shot down on Madison Btreet, near Chest- nut, March 8 by Gaetano Monte- magno. was convicted largely on the evidence of the Salle brothers, who told of statements made by Carnivale and Fennimore to them, regarding the hiring of Monte- magno to kill Galmairi at the com- mand of Rofrano.
